I installed from factory right after rc1 was announced. YaST2 is still quite broken in it. Instead of installing again, I want to update. Someone a short time ago here posted http://dev-loki.blogspot.com/2006/04/how-to-use-smart-with-suse-linux.html and I thought I'd try that. Following the directions "we have to remove the existing smart channels for 10.1", I got a lot of confirmation requests, all of which I answered yes to. I couldn't figure out from the man page how to do the upgrade, so I managed to install smart-gui using rpm. I selected update all, but that took a very few minutes, updating maybe a dozen or so packages.
In /etc/smart/channels are the following: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 187 Apr 13 22:24 packman-gwdg.channel -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 178 Apr 13 22:24 suse-apt-base-gwdg.channel -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 186 Apr 13 22:24 suse-apt-security-gwdg.channel -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 182 Apr 13 22:24 suse-apt-update-gwdg.channel -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 165 Apr 13 22:24 suser-guru-gwdg.channel Is that everything that needs to be there? I can't believe something supposedly "smart" could find so few packages to upgrade, with YaST2 nowhere among them, unless I've missed something. Obviously I have.
